My Top 10 Must-Have Ingredients

Thanks to Jenna at www.myjoyfulhaven.com for offering the idea to discuss this topic! Here is the list of my top 10 ingredients that I always enjoy on a weekly basis and cannot live without. They are in no particular order -- all good eats!

Kara, I love your website! People don't realize that cravings aren't just cravings -- they are signals we need to listen to from our bodies. Most of the time, we don't know how to listen! I aspire to have a practice like yours in the future. Keep up the great work! ~Erica

Yes, most eggs do have soy, unless you can buy them from a local farmer that does not use soy in their feed.

I am allergic to soy. After two years of avoiding it directly, I still break blood vessels internally when I eat soy. Not fun. After I ate a 3-4 omega 3, organic vegetarian-fed eggs, I felt sick and had a racing pulse (signs of a bad body reaction). I have avoided eggs since then and am waiting for a local farmer to reopen business so I can buy some soy-free eggs!

I've heard someone say, "You are what you eat and what you eat, eats."

Love this! And thanks for visiting my site and commenting. I will be back here for sure. My list would pretty much be the same, although we haven't been successful with kefir yet. But garlic - there is no such thing as too much garlic.
